        I heard many times that the ODBC driver for ORACLE 7 that is sold by ORACLE Corp is very slow. It seems to be a bad conception of this driver by ORACLE itself. Otherwise, ODBC should, generaly, not add a too big overhead.

	By the way, I have a question about Visual C++ and this ODBC driver:
		we're looking to use ODBC with the MFC 2.5 classes and CDataSet/CDataBase objects.
		unhapilly, we experiment an error in DBCORE.CPP at line 242. It seems that the driver itself is sending back 
		a null handle. Have you a solution or heard about a solution?
